This month's challenge was to use tissue paper in a project. I chose to use the faux silk technique. I crumpled up my tissue paper and then smoothed it out to stamp on. After stamping, I glued it down to my white cardstock and proceeded to make my card.
Details: stamps - A Little Argyle, Masculine Motifs; ink - Hawaiian Shores, New Leaf, Dark Chocolate; paper - stampers select white, Hawaiian Shores, Dark Chocolate; accessories - tissue paper, Top Note die (Sizzix for Stampin' Up!), corner rounder punch (SU!), rustic jute button twine (colored with E40 Copic marker), Hawaiian Shores buttons, dimensionals

Hi Chris - hope you and the family are all well!
Love this card and the effect of the Argyle (Pringle) stamping - you are so making me wish I had got that set!
Oh, now you've gone and made me Google something again, Chris. I'd never heard argyle referred to as Pringle. In the U.S., Pringles is a brand of potato chips (crisps). Very interesting to look into the history of argyle!
